50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Albany

“1111 Solano is a new location for this restaurant. Previously near Craneway and before the pandemic in Point Richmond. Same chef, same staff, and same excellent food and service.“

“Tony’s Style looks like an amazing place! The food seems really delicious and full of flavor, and the service looks great too.
Even though I haven’t been there yet, everything about this restaurant makes me want to try it soon. Definitely I will see you guys soon 👏🍽️“

“The seafood here is absolutely superb in both flavour and service, with exceptionally fresh ingredients. It ranks among the finest seafood I've ever tasted😃😋“

“One of my absolute favorite restaurants in SF. Visited a few times and this past one really reminded me why this place is special. The food is fantastic, but never pretentious. Maggie mentioned her favorite item was the salad which I couldn’t believe, but to be honest I think it was my favorite too. The black cod and the daikon rice cake were also insanely good. The service was exception, huge shout out to Maggie for her help with our allergies too. Highly recommend!!“

“Amazing food, attentive and knowledgable service made for a memorable first night in San Francisco!!!!“

“It's a restaurant with very delicious food. It's not all anchovies although we love anchovies. There's a very interesting mix of cuisine styles including vegetarian, poultry and fish. The food smells here are great! You know the kitchen is really cooking. It's also a very welcoming place with friendly service. Can't wait to go back!“

“As a midwesterner, a straight from the docks seafood place like this is a dream. Completely blew our modest budget there and am SO glad I did. Chowder wasn't new England or Manhattan style but unique and superb.
Despite the long list of great restaurants in SF, I probably return to Popi's on my next visit.“

“My fiancé and I found your restaurant Saturday afternoon while sightseeing the city. We were so impressed with the atmosphere and hospitality. This place is the best for nice afternoon seafood lunch! Thank you so much for the delicious meal.“

“Had San Francisco Cioppino (Mussels. Clams, Crab, Cod, Prawns, Scallops and Garlic Bread that was the bomb). Only giving 2 thumbs up as I only have 2. Great food, great service!“

“I’ve been to restaurants all over the world and this is up there in the top for seafood. We tried just about everything on the menu.

The Ciopinno with garlic bread is an absolute dream. Save the sauce from the clams for more dipping. Order several oysters for palate cleansers between dishes because they’re RICH. When they ask if you want the bib, proudly say yes.

Keep it (un?)healthy with the delicious artichoke. You know it’s done well when you can scrape the entire leaf, not just the tip. Don’t sleep on the chowder. And by god please get the ceasar with crab meat. Save up and spend it. Don’t skimp. The wait means you won’t be back a lot so double dip, sip and be happy.

A few notes. Get there very early and still expect a wait. I hate waits but this one is worth it. Their wine is not to die for, especially for the quality of food. The wine store across the street is phenomenal so buy wine there and pay the corkage fee - you’ll thank me later. Also, join their wine club if you’re in the city to take advantage of the best back patio in town.“

“Waterbar is a solid option for an afternoon meal along the waterfront. The food is well-prepared, with a strong focus on fresh seafood, and the wine list offers a good variety to pair with the menu. Service is efficient and professional without feeling rushed. The space itself is clean and modern, with a comfortable atmosphere that works well for a relaxed lunch or early dinner. The location is a key feature—tables along the windows provide direct views of the San Francisco Bay Bridge, which adds to the overall experience.“

“The food was absolutely amazing ❤️😎💯💯💯“

“Good service, delicious food, nice atmosphere, nothing to complain about“

“Best Haitian food in the Bay Area hands-down! This was our first time trying Haitian food and it did not disappoint. Oxtail meat fell off the bone, jerk chicken spice was perfect. All the sides were more than what we could've asked for. Service was friendly, quick and welcoming. Will definitely return soon“

“this is the best lobster roll i’ve ever had in my entire life. such meaty and buttery pieces. got the truffle butter and it was so amazing. please open one of these in toronto i am begging you i will eat there every day! the staff was so kind and cool. i don’t like the chairs but otherwise everything was perfect!“

“Great bartender! Right on SF Bay.“

“What an amazing culinary experience! We had a three course meal. The waiter was very helpful, friendly and had great recommendations! I highly recommend this place if you're in San Francisco!“

“Amazing service and food!!!!“

“The food was very good and the place is cute with a great soundtrack but the portions are ridiculous. $8 for a single very small dumpling that's about half a bite's worth of food, for example. If that's your thing, it's delicious.“

“Hands down our favorite go-to restaurant when we are in the city going out to dinner, or when we are looking to take out-of-towners someplace truly unique, or when we are looking to bring the most delicious dinner home. The seafood is as fresh and high quality as it gets, served in the most unique way. Start with the chowder, packed with a wide variety of shellfish, spiced just right with a little kick to it, neither New England nor Manhattan, they have invented a new broth that is both rich and flavorful while being light. The Scallops are a must try. They simply melt in your mouth with a burst of complex flavors. The small plate tostadas meld flavors and textures you just can’t find anywhere else. Although it is located on Divisadero in a multi-block long string of restaurants, the atmosphere inside has the feel of the most comfortable neighborhood bistro. Impecable service all at a very reasonable price for the quality and the creativity and joy the food will bring to your palate.“

“Best poke in mission district.“

“This a place to visit,great food and service“

“The food is absolutely delicious, the atmosphere is luxurious, and the view from the windows is stunning“

“Excelente servicio , quedé encantada 😍“

“Had lunch at the little shucker. It is an interesting place. Lunch menu is simple and focused on seafood. All seafood dishes are fresh and cooked to perfection. The salad didn’t look too appealing but tasted delicious. Actually we loved everything we ordered. Our favorite appetizer is scallop tartare and Brussels sprouts. The roasted whole fish is also excellent. The portion is small but we don’t mind. They definitely deserve a five star rating for food. However the plates were really shabby and worse than those used in school cafeterias. I would not use these for my dogs or cats. The decorations are also very bland. I think the purpose might be to create a casual and relaxing atmosphere. Chairs and benches are not comfortable. I would probably come for a quick bite or a glass of wine but not a real sit down meal with friends.“

“What a perfect end to a busy day! The food was delicious, the portions were just right, and the wait staff was very friendly! I will definitely be back.😋“

“Haven’t been in years and boy howdy! It’s upgraded and then some. It’s not as divey as it used to be, but what’s here now is pretty cool! More places to hang (upstairs and down) with more views. The menu is expanded but still simple, good cocktails. The food has definitely improved a couple of levels and the prices are great for what you get. Awesome, friendly staff that wants you to have a great time!“

“The vibes outside on a beautiful day were lovely, and everyone seemed really nice, but spending ~$125 and feeling hungry afterwards was a bit of a bummer. (Fish and chips, salad, 2 chowders, some raw and some grilled oysters. In retrospect the move might have been to order some more fries for the calories.) Came here with partner & parents and sat outside. One issue was that the music was way too loud to be able to have a conversation without yelling. After waiting a while for raw oysters checked in with waitstaff and found they’d misdelivered the order to a different table. (It was a super busy night.) I wasn’t a huge fan of the salad; it was small but pricy and could’ve used some citrus to brighten it up. Fish and chips were delicious.“

“Had a reservation, but a physical problem in late afternoon required cancellation. However there is no telephone number and no way to let restaurant know -- and a default charge of $40.

Apparently this isn't restaurant policy. They contacted us within an hour and refunded the money -- and said they're looking for another reservation service.“

“Absolutely fantastic if you can handle the heat.
Had a wonderful Mango Habanero Aquachile.
The best I ever had…
But the heat is real.
This place is a real deal. You’ll see them prepare food and it’s as freas as it gets.“

“Delicious food and cocktails.“

“This place was recommended to us by a bartender at Mr Bings and we were not disappointed. The food was delicious. And the servers/owners were so friendly. Highly recommend.“

“Excellent food and service, and quiet ambience, so you can still hear yourself think.“

“Love it! Love the food, friendly and welcoming staff“

“food was great, lind of pricey but worth it“

“This place is fire. Everything I've tried has been bomb - shrimp super burrito, aquachiles, fish tacos, chicken tacos, carnitas tacos. The fish tacos are something special. The owner (I'm assuming) is also the nicest dude ever. Definitely come through this spot!“

“The food was flavourful and the texture was just right. We ordered the Peking duck and soy chicken. Our kids loved the chicken with a side of steamed rice. The chef enjoys strong flavours and skillfully cut the chicken like butter in front of our table. The atmosphere is casual with an Asian-fusion trendy vibe.“

“I must say i had high hopes but the meal was tasteless but my friends had too much salt. I wanted to like it. Wont return, wont recommend. ☹“

“Happened to dine here 2 times while in SFO. The jazz upstairs floats through the entire establishment. Really enjoyed the shrimp in dijonnaise. Friend had halibut which she thought was very good. 2nd time, we both ordered the halibut but it was overcooked. Staff was happy to correct and it came out perfect.We dined early the 2nd time. Wonder if fish was reheated?“

“My go to. Constantly delish for the past 30 years.“

“Best meal of my 14 day trip to California. wonderful atmosphere, great service and delicious food. I wish you had a restaurant in St Petersburg, FL.“

“The breakfast quiche and the bread pudding.“
